| - This is a classic Italian restaurant with a unique menu, a great wine list, and a warm, homey atmosphere. The real fireplace adds to the ambiance. I do recommend it, if that's what you're in the mood for. We had a great appetizer of porcini mushrooms, and some decent grilled octopus. No complaints!
However, when the menu offers to top any salad with chorizo sausage, I expect it to come on top, or be integrated with the salad somehow. Instead, I get a rectangular plate with the salad on one end (an excellent Insalata Cato) a full, undressed sausage on the other (a delicious sausage), and a gulf of plain white plate in between. It's a bizarre presentation that does nothing to pull these flavours together.
How can I say this delicately? My salad had a big wiener on the side.
